Criminology with Police Studies is a way for you to study not only the key theories of crime, deviance and transgression but the response of the police service too. Look at recent changes to the police service and how this affects the way they protect the public. Examine how the police engage with victims, offenders and witnesses. Debate the controversies facing the sector. This course lets you lift the lid on criminality and the criminal justice system.
On specialist modules you will learn the qualitative and quantitative research methods used by criminologists and police and start applying them to your own research. We will introduce you to different theoretical perspectives and, together with your peers, you will discuss how these can be used to analyse topics such as victimology, community policing, public safety, safeguarding and the criminal justice system.
Our goal is to help you to develop your critical thinking skills, to back up your ideas with evidence and reason and to learn to design, plan and execute research that supports your interests. You will be supported throughout your degree by our team of academics who are all active in criminological research and who have extensive policing experience. This means the material you cover is the most relevant it can possibly be. Engage with them in seminars, workshops and 1 to 1 tutorials and let their expertise become your own.
